Notes on VM for CUxAC

(top)

The CUAC OVA Templates contains the settings for the vCPU, vRAM/Memory, vDisk and the vNIC only. It does not contain the Operating System or the CUAC software. To download the software go to www.cisco.com/go/ac.

Versions 8.x and 9.x are server-based (UAC Department, Business, Enterprise and Premium) and require a VM.

Version 10.0 supports both server-based (UAC Advanced) and serverless (UAC Standard) options.

IOPS and Storage System Performance Requirements

This section provides the IOPS Data for Cisco Unified Attendant Consoles (using Enterprise Attendant Console to produce heaviest load). Load test and average operations are represented. These tests use the published OVA template for Cisco Unified Attendant Consoles.
